Good Afternoon Ladies! My name is Sara and I just joined this site for support as I struggle through my weight-loss. I've been struggling with my weight every since I can remember and although I lost 15lbs last year, I gained it back.. so this is my year to reach my goal of 40lbs!

So... Hello to everyone!

Hello Sara!

Welcome

Hi Sara, I'm glad you found us here! There is lots of wonderful support to be found around the forum. Just jump right on in and start posting!

Welcome Sara,

What did you do to lose 15lbs?
Repeat what you did a little bit harder this year.

Hi Sara,
I lost 15 lbs this past summer and gained most of it back too. I think I want to lose 30- 40 lbs this time and keep it off for good! I am tired of the rollercoaster. We can do it!

hey & welcome! good luck, you can definitely reach your goals! hope to see you around!

Thank you for the welcome wishes ladies! I'm looking forward to searching the forums for good tips and ideas. I'm happy I found this site as I really need support as I don't think anyone can do it alone.

Hi Sara!
Hey, it happens - so many of us here lost it only to gain it back (and sometimes more!) - there's room on the wagon 'cause a lot of us had fallen off - the support you need is here - we'll all be around to cheer you on.

Glad to have you join us! There are lots & lots of different groups and forums - I'm sure you'll find some that will keep you motivated and inspired - you'll be a wonderful addition to any of them! There's also info and first hand advice on different eating plans and exercise to help get through the ups and downs.

There are bunches of people here with more to lose and some with less - the bottom line is that we all have to do it a day at a time. The good thing is that we'll have lots of company along the way.

I've only been here a few months myself, having NEVER been part of an online forum. What has been so eye-opening is how much it has helped me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or defeated, I just log on and read some of the success stories, complete with their before & after photos - or read about others still dealing day to day with their challenges - and before I know it, the time has flown by and so have all the thoughts of going off track or giving up. It has made all the difference in the success of my weight loss so far.

So welcome - you 've found the right place - join in by inspiring us and being inspired!

All the best - good luck with your goals,
Lee
